French frigate Junon (1806)
The ''Junon'' was a ''Gloire'' class 40-gun frigate of the French Navy. Launched in 1806, she saw service during the Napoleonic Wars, escorting merchant convoys to France's besieged Caribbean colonies. In February 1809 she was captured at sea after a fierce engagement with four Royal Navy vessels.
Recommissioned as HMS ''Junon'', she served as part of the British blockade of French ports, but was recaptured in December 1809 and scuttled off the French colony of Guadeloupe.

On 10 February 1809 she ran across a British squadron composed of the frigates and , the brig and the schooner ; ''Junon'' surrendered after a lengthy resistance that left the ship entirely dismasted and more than half her crew killed. She was towed to the British port of Halifax, Nova Scotia for repair, and was subsequently commissioned into the Royal Navy as the 38-gun HMS ''Junon''.〔James & Chamier 1837, pp. 150–152〕
